wow 30 pages, last time I check its was only 5!

But its still people telling me about him, and there's so many different things that you hear. Mormons say he came back 200 years ago, the whole point that god wanted humanity to pass on the message i feel is its flaw. How do I know if what has been said about him as been corrupted over the...

Its either that, or waste my entire existence following something I can't be certain is true

The post above you says the Bible is written from a male perspective, I disagree with you that women can read the bible the same way a man can read it.

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.” [Exodus 20:17] This quote does seem to reflect the fact that men had the power in society...

I would obviously not want to experience hell, and if Jesus was there when I died and spoke to me, I would accept him. But In my life now, I do not believe he existed. To me, Jesus is only words on a page in a book. Would I really go to hell for not following words? If he came down to earth...

I don't think its fair that you are telling this person his/her beliefs are wrong, that is completely unjust and uncalled for, they were just giving me advice and their perception on the world and their beliefs. I would probably get banned if I told you, you should change youre beliefs, just...

Yeah i'm good thanks :D I've also just moved into a new place. I've moved out of home to a place near my uni. I'm living on my own at the momment, so its a bit lonely but i'm trying to get a head start and get reading through my coursebooks early, my housemates are going to join me in september...

I aggree with what your saying, but Christians too have been conditioned from a very young age, children brought up in any religion are. I think it's fair to say that theists and atheists have completely different realities that seem obsurd to one another. No one can proove their reality to the...

We can all objectively agree that we die. The body stops working and our hearts stop beating. Everyone from all faiths atheist, theist can agree on this without agreement. My thought/question is, why is it that God can be argued about. A faiths position on God is that it is essential to...

I mean't being sent to hell after they die. This makes sense to me, it seems mighty unfair for an atheist to be punished just due to lack of knowledge, culture and birthplace etc... The problem I have is that for someone (like me), being born into a almost completely atheist environment...

Hey So, should Atheists be punished for not following the word of God when they don't believe he exists or that the Bible is legitimate.

I agree drjean, we are all individuals but we are also all part of many many different social groups, and we may not even be aware of the group processes that go on. If your interested please have a look at the following, its very interesting: Minimal group paradigm - Wikipedia, the free...

Hey I'm afraid you analysis is a bit off. De-individualisation is part of social categorisation theory (By Turner). It says that when people identify as part of a group, they take up a group identity rather than a personal identity. They judge each other based on a prototype, which is a concept...

Have you heard of the theory, idealistic ontology? Its a theory about what is knowledge, so in this case, what is objective morality? From this perspective, reality is not objective and we can never be objective (even through science). Instead there we only have subjective realities (objective...

Heya Gray Please do :)

Why do you think some Christian's are so against homosexuals marrying? Compared to most of the definitions of marriage above from the bible, it would seem to be morally harmless.

Wow, thanks for sharing this, this is all from the Bible? If so, is all of it gods word?

Hi Wilshire I disagree that homosexual couples cannot provide the right environment for upbringing children. Yes they may not be able to have children without assistance, but I don't think this means they won't be able to love a child they bring up. In terms of morality, I do no think it...

Hey Fundi Sorry I didn't watch the video. I agree with you, if there is a god (i'm not really sure) then I think it is more about how a person feels about another. Perhaps the gay population want the right to marry to prove the Christian stereotype, (that all that consists of a same sex...
